September is Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month

You may know that September is Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month. But did you know that Ovarian Cancer is the #5 cause of cancer-related deaths in women? According to the American Cancer Society, 1 in 75 women will develop Ovarian Cancer in her lifetime.

 

At Fabulously Flawless we are strong advocates for spreading awareness about Ovarian Cancer, and passionate about the health and well-being of women. We have had the honor of meeting many cancer survivors, and we have seen first hand the devastating effects it can have on their mind, body, and spirit.

 

We have also had the honor of being able to make these women feel whole and beautiful again when they struggle with hair loss from Chemotherapy and scars from surgery.

 

Whether we help women to feel beautiful again by creating eyebrows, providing them with hair follicle replication for thinning hair, or scar camouflage and skin repigmentation procedures to help erase scars with from surgery, we love being able to give women and their confidence back through these enhancements.

 

In our effort to support Ovarian Cancer awareness, research, and education Fabulously Flawless will be donating 25% of our proceeds from all hair follicle replication, eyebrow creation, scar camo, and skin repigmentation procedures to the Ovarian Cancer Research Fund Alliance during the month of September. Contact us today to make your appointment.

 

OVARIAN CANCER FACTS

Ovarian cancer is the deadliest of all gynecologic cancers and the eleventh most common cancer among women. There is no early detection test for ovarian cancer, and its symptoms can be subtle, leading many women to be diagnosed at later stages of the disease when survival rates are poor. This year approximately 22,000 women in the United States will be diagnosed with ovarian cancer, and more than 14,000 women will die from the disease. This problem is not going away: as the American population ages, the incidence of ovarian cancer is expected to double by 2050. Help spread the word about Ovarian Cancer. What you pass on might save your life or someone else you know.

How To Get and Keep Your Makeup Looking Perfect This Summer

There’s nothing worse in the summertime after spending some time outdoors when you look in the mirror and realize that the makeup you just spent 20 minutes applying has disappeared.

 

Those dark circles under your eyes are not from a night of partying, but instead from eye makeup that has run because it couldn’t stand up to the sun, surf, sand, and sweat.

 

Summer is supposed to be about having fun outdoors, going to the pool, the lake, and the beach. But who can enjoy all that summer has to offer when you are busy worrying about humidity, sweat, and water ruining your makeup and leaving you feeling a bit self-conscious?

 

Few of us are blessed with perfect skin and features allowing us not to have to wear makeup, and we all want to look our best. But sometimes the makeup we use to perk up our faces presents us with more problems than solutions. Smudges, smears, running, and fading of our eyebrow pencil, eyeliner, eyeshadow, mascara, and lip color presents a huge summertime challenge for many women. It’s because of this challenge that women are turning to permanent makeup. With permanent eyeliner, eyebrows, eyeshadow, lip color and liner you can look your best day and night, alleviating the worry of having to put on makeup or the smudging and smearing that comes with wearing traditional makeup.

 

Permanent makeup stays put and lasts for years. Though it is “permanent,” the pigments can fade a bit over time, and you will need to have occasional touchups. But the freedom you can enjoy of not having to apply makeup daily is wonderful! Many women find that having permanent makeup saves them money in the long run too. They no longer need to spend hundreds of dollars a year buying products to use every day.

 

Having permanent makeup doesn’t mean you can’t still have fun changing your looks for various occasions. If you want to switch up your look, you can still apply regular makeup over top of your permanent makeup to create a more dramatic look.

 

More and more women are being liberated from the shackles of having to worry about their makeup application and maintenance after having their permanent makeup procedure. If you are ready to free yourself from the stress and headaches of makeup, contact us to schedule a free consultation. To find out more about permanent makeup visit our permanent makeup page.
